If the function is and f(4) − f(1) = f '(c)(4 − 1) then there is not any answer.
Given function is and f(4) − f(1) = f '(c)(4 − 1).
In this question we have to apply the mean value theorem, which says that given a secant line between points A and B, there is at least a point C that belongs to the curve and the derivative of that curve exists.
We begin by calculating f(2) and f(5):
f(2)=
f(2)=1
f(5)=
f(5)=1
And the slope of the function:
(x)=
(c)=0
Now,
=-2
=0
-2 is not equal to 0. So there is not any answer.
Hence if the function is and f(4) − f(1) = f '(c)(4 − 1) then there is not any answer.
